choose the perfect color scarf, or the appropriate sized cloth ing without having to guess, or make a quick cell phone call that will tip the recipient off that you are purchasing an item that required you to know the size. It’s good to keep the sur prise in Christmas shopping gifts, and one way. to do that is to be prepared.
■ Write down gift ideas. By hav ing an idea of what you are go ing to purchase for each person and writing it down, you’ve al ready planted that seed in your head, even if you happen to forget your list or. don’t have it on an impromptu shopping list. Being prepared lessens holiday stress. You can also look for items within your budget that fit your desire for your Christ mas shopping gift.
■ Type out the list and print it, in triplicate. When you type it, use your word processor’s bucket function to create check boxes in front of each person’s name. This last Christmas shop ping tip may seem like overkill, but it is necessary for the suc cessful shopper. You can put one list .in your handbag or purse, one in your vehicle, and keep one elsewhere for backup, or pve it to your spouse or part ner if you are sharing gift buy ing duties. By typing the list, you are also reinforcing all the information you’ve put down about each gift recipient.
